Poptimists Album Science #5

[chezghost.livejournal.com]

This is about Proving By Science how good an album really is. And it would appear that Pulp's 'Different Class' is officially 76% good putting it the previous three albums in the rankings. Shockah!

Now, if you please, join me in rating the following tracks from the Spice Girls 'Spice' album out of ten:

[Poll #872498]



If you've not heard or can't hear the song you could either not mark it (if you dislike the artist generally) or give it a 5 for balance if you do like the artist generally.

I hated them at the time as well. I hated their blatant commercialism and their (I thought) pathetic attempt at empowering young girls. I was already empowered! I didn't need them! I wrote in many letters to Planet Sound expressing this in a variety of different ways (including poetry). But now I can safely appreciate the pop genius of this album, putting my ire to one side. Aside from anything else, it's great dancing music. Swing it shake it move it make it who do you think you are?

I did try them again recently but 'Wannabe' still strikes me as truly dire and the rest get worse... I feel like a bit of a failed pop fan for not liking them but they just fill me with rage. :/

Fair enough. There are still some canonically accepted pop classics that I can't stand! However I can't deny that Spice fills me with utter JOY. And not just because I found it in Oxfam for £2.29 about four months ago.
